I look forward to going to work—not only is it a beautiful clinic, but it is also well-run. Being a fairly new RN, new situations can be pretty intimidating and anxiety provoking. I have felt like I have the help necessary to learn and develop skills as a new RN with a minimal amount of anxiety—there is help available for almost any situation.
When I was making the decision about where to start my nursing career, I knew I had to choose Samaritan. I believe we have a unique system in that we all work together and have the ‘no job is too small’ mentality. I still get excited to go to work. I appreciate the team I have and trust them in our high stress environment. I enjoy the humor that we all have together even on the worst of shifts!

I am fond of the clinic setting. You will never stop learning as there is always new departments, new programs, and new opportunities. The clinic offers a variety of shifts to accommodate your work-life balance. It has been an excellent job to work around raising my family at home and also giving me a work family. You can’t beat the array of schedules Samaritan has to offer including full-time, part-time, and on-call!

I accepted the position at Samaritan because of the clear focus of the position I was hired into. I stayed because of the staff and comradery that I felt and shared with them. I love my team because of the consistent comradery and caring they show for each other and the patients. We really are a team.

Samaritan has given me support to grow as a nurse. I have had the opportunity to work in all departments and finally feel that I found my home as a charge nurse where I can help my fellow staff members and patients.
Samaritan gives employees opportunities to grow and advance within. They support further education and provide all the resources needed to excel at your job—I started my nursing career as a CNA and continued to work my way up to RN.
Nicole Tabert
All of the staff take the time to listen to each other, and more importantly listen to the patients. We love each other as one big team and we treat our patients with love and compassion. We respect each other and our patient’s rights and privacy. We are innovative in how we continue to seek new services to add to our community.
